Sausage/Egg/Cheese Breakfast Sandwich

 I tried and compared both the McDonald's- Sausage/Egg/Cheese/McGriddle, and the Jimmy Deans - Maple Griddle Cake, Sausage/Egg/Cheese.
The McGriddle was $5.49 for 1.
The Jimmy Deans $.49 for 4 ($1.88 each).


 

Overall, I actually prefer the taste and texture of the Jimmy Deans. And at a savings of $3.61 each they are almost impossible to beat. Pus, they are already at home and can be ready in 2 minutes.


 

Pick some of these up at your local grocery store and give them a try.

10 out of 10 for a breakfast sandwich.

Hot Chocolates

 I thought that since we are going to have ice and be home for the next several days that I would want some hot chocolate. I decided to get Swiss Miss and Nestles and compare them.

I made both of them with whole milk using the package recommended amounts.

I personally like the Nestle better. It is a bit more chocolatly and a bit sweeter. 


 
The Swiss Miss seemed a bit thinner and darker. 


 The Nestle was from Walmart and the Swiss Miss ws from Food Lion.
